Chapter 132 [Vault]

Title - Against the Gods: Sign In System | Chapter 4 | Futanari MC

____________________________________________________________

[3rd POV]

Staring upon one of the Fairies of Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace, Fenghua sighed ‘I had a feeling she’d show up eventually, but I hoped I’d have enough time. She’s not someone I can directly fight with, not with her being Sky Profound, far beyond me at the moment. She’s three major realms above me, far too much for me to even be able to fight back, much less damage her’ Fenghua thought, knowing she was doomed if they actually fought. The only chance of her winning would be through the power of destruction. 

‘But I don’t think she’s here for a fight, so let’s see what this is all about’ Fenghua thought as she looked at the woman, before opening her mouth. 

“May I ask what it is you want, senior?” Fenghua asked, knowing that she had to be respectful to this woman, unless she wanted to die. She hated having to do this, but she knew that she was dead otherwise. 

Chu Yueli, hearing the question, looked over Fenghua, and noticed that she had gotten stronger, a lot stronger. ‘What a monstrous genius! Going from Elementary Profound to Nascent Profound in only 3 months of work!’ Chu Yueli thought, inwardly shocked at the rate of growth, as it was faster than even her disciple, Xia Qingyue. 

“Do you know who I am?” Chu Yueli asked Fenghua, who looked her over before replying. 

“I don’t. But I suspect you are a Fairy from the Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace, correct? The clothing seems like something they'd wear, and your beauty fits a member of that sect” Fenghua responded, as Chu Yueli nodded. 

“That is correct. I am one of the seven fairies, known as Chu Yueli. Seeing as you have understood who I am, I believe you know what I am here for, correct?” Chu Yueli asked, as Fenghua nodded. 

“You wish to recruit me, right?” Fenghua replied to the woman, who gave her a small smile. 

“Yes. I have been keeping an eye on you, and I have noticed your incredible talent and potential, and I believe that the Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace can properly teach you to use that talent, and bring out your full potential” Chu Yueli said, as Fenghua raised an eyebrow. 

“You have broken through the limits of Elementary Profound, and have broken into Nascent Profound, all within only a couple of months! That is monstrous, child, and I believe that your rate of growth will become even better once you join our sect. With our resources, you could become a true powerhouse within the Blue Wind Empire!” Chu Yueli exclaimed, trying to persuade Fenghua to join, as the teen just listened, before giving the woman an awkward smile. 

“I apologize senior, but…I have no interest in joining a sect at the moment. I prefer to work alone, and I cannot give up the right to get with another” Fenghua said with an apologetic smile, as Chu Yueli furrowed eyebrows. 

“You would give up a chance of a lifetime just to lay with some boy?”

“No, I’d give up the chance of a lifetime to be able to lay with a woman” Fenghua responded simply, as Chu Yueli looked at her with wide eyes in understanding. There had been a few members of the sect that would sometimes enjoy the company of one another, in a way that wouldn’t let them lose their purity. As they required their purity in order to cultivate their Profound Arts. 

“But you can keep your-” “Senior, I am not like most other girls. Perhaps you should try to focus your senses somewhere else on my body?” Fenghua interrupted her, as the woman frowned, eyes narrowed as she spread her profound senses, only for her eyes to shoot wide as she realized what Fenghua meant. 

‘She-how is this possible?! She has both the organs of a man and a woman? What is she?’

“I’m what’s called a Futanari. An old term to describe those that have both the reproductive organs of a man and a woman. I’d like to think that I am a woman with a bit of an add on, if you will” Fenghua said, surprised as the woman didn’t look at her in disgust, just confusion. 

She had assumed that she’d think of her as a freak, thanks to the type of world she was in, but now she realized that perhaps not all people would be like that. 

“I-I see. I apologize for not noticing sooner. May I ask, were you born like this? Or was this the product of some sort of illness?” Chu Yueli asked awkwardly, trying not to let Fenghua realize that she had not only sensed her member, but got a very good look at it, something that made her fight down blush that was threatening to form. 

“I was born like this. I like to think of it as both a gift and a curse. A gift because it will allow me to have children and take a wife for myself, but a curse due to the reactions it may cause by others. If I may ask Senior, I  hope that you won’t tell others about this, as it will cause me a lot of problems” Fenghua asked, as Chu Yueli looked at her, before nodding. 

“I won’t speak of this to anyone. I…I am not one to judge others for such a thing, especially not a young woman the same age as my disciple” Chu Yueli said, as Fenghua raised an eyebrow.

“Senior has a disciple?”

“I do, I believe you should know of her. She’s the daughter of Floating Cloud Cities mayor…perhaps you may visit her sometime in the future? I believe you might be a good sparring partner for her, her name is Xia Qingyue” Chu Yueli said to Fenghua, who went silent at the offer, before nodding slowly.

“I can. I have been busy with cultivation and growing, but…perhaps in 2 months I can go and visit?” Fenghua replied, as Chu Yueli smiled. 

“That would be perfect! I shall inform my disciple about you. Now…may you have a good day, child” Chu Yueli said, as she took off into the skies above, as Fenghua watched her fly off, something that only those of a certain realm could do. 

‘That was…interesting. She was a lot kinder than I had expected, but I think that might be because of me being a woman…for the most part. Or maybe it’s because of my talent? Either way, that was better than I could have hoped for. And now I can properly meet Xia Qingyue, who…is an interesting person, one who I’d prefer to save from Yun Che’s influence’ Fenghua thought, remembering that the woman had a lot of terrible things happen to her, all so Yun Che could grow. 

Her and Yun Che’s fates were literally tied together, which Fenghua was pretty sure was thanks to the most powerful entity in the Against the Gods universe, the Ancestral Goddess, someone beyond even the True Gods, which was classified as the strongest cultivators to ever exist. She was also the first being in existence in this universe, and was someone who would reincarnate over and over in new forms, her current form being that of Yun Che’s aunt. 

‘Well either way, I think this is a good thing. Training with Xia Qingyue will be a good way to gauge how strong I actually am, and maybe get some proper combat experience, besides fighting a bunch of weak beasts’ Fenghua thought with a smile on her face, pleased with the conversation with Chu Yueli. 

She had decided to wait 2 months to meet Xia Qingyue, so she would have enough time to grow in power, and cultivate to a higher level, which is exactly what she decided to go do, as she glanced around, before smiling, forming a demonic circle underneath her, and teleporting off, ready to cultivate for the rest of the day.

[2 months later]

A couple more months had passed since meeting Chu Yueli, and a bit had happened. Mostly in regards to cultivation, signing in, and fighting profound beasts. 

In terms of profound beasts, she had managed to find and kill the strongest profound beast in the forest, which was a rather powerful “Lightning Wind Wolf” that was at the peak of 10th level Elementary Profound. She had sold most of its parts, with her keeping it’s profound core for herself, as it could be sold for more in other cities. 

In terms of sign ins, she had signed in for the fifth time, just doing it in her garden, and it had given her…a truly amazing reward.

__________________________

[Flashback: 1 month ago]

Sitting in her garden, sipping on some tea as she looked at the notification in front of her. 

[Sign in available! Would you like to sign in? Due to it being the hosts 5th time, the host shall receive boosted rewards]

‘I thought I’d only get a boosted reward once?’

[Host would only receive a boosted reward that could give them a blessing and body at the same time, once. For the Blessing of the Heavens is immensely powerful, and far beyond normal rewards]

‘Huh…I see. Alright then, sign in system’ Fenghua spoke inwardly, watching as the words formed in front of her once again.

[Signing in!]

[5th Sign In Location: Li Fenghua’s Personal Garden]

[Heavenly Treasure - The Soul Warming Lotus (Martial Peak): Constantly nurtures and strengthens the Divine Soul. Can, over time, heal even the most egregious Divine Soul injuries. Can protect the Divine Soul from all impurities and even save its user from Becoming Devil (Devil Path). Can strongly resist the influence of even the most powerful Divine Soul upon a cultivator. Can be used to tame, store, and strengthen Soul Devouring Insects. Can allow one to absorb extremely massive amounts of energy that a cultivator otherwise would be unable to withstand. Can keep the Divine Soul alive when the flesh body is destroyed. Can be used to perform extraordinarily powerful Divine Soul attacks. Can absorb the Divine Soul of enemies to strengthen the possessor's Divine Soul. (Divine Soul basically = your soul, from my understanding)]

[Heavenly Flame: Life Spirit Flame (BTTH): This flame is highly strange, for most Heavenly Flames are pervaded with the power of destruction, but the Life Spirit Flame, instead of displaying destructiveness, is instead famous for its power of life. The steam produced by this flame helps to accelerate the growth of magical herbs, and it is said that if one tosses some seeds into this flame, those seeds would quickly germinate and grow. In other words, with this flame, one would no longer need to search for any herbs, and would be able to get boundless amounts of ingredients with just seeds. This Life Spirit Flame is also known as the Flame of Longevity for any person who obtains this flame would get a lifespan comparable to that of those beasts which are famous for their long lifespan. The only flaw of this flame is that this flame is not very suitable for combat, thus it does little to increment one's battle strength]

[1,000 Cyan Profound Coins]

Reading through the rewards, Fenghua blinked once, twice, and a third time, as her eyes shot wide in surprise. 

“This?! A Heavenly Flame?! And The Soul Warming Lotus?!” Fenghua exclaimed in shock, as both of the rewards were simply…incredible, absolutely incredible. They were both “Heavenly” and were both something that any cultivator from their worlds would gladly slaughter people to get. 

The soul warming lotus would drastically increase her cultivation speeds, while the Life Spirit flame would give her the means to grow her own herbs for cultivation, pills, and really anything else she’d need them for. Combine that with her spatial ring, and she’s basically got infinite herbs that she can grow on the spot, and absolute godsend in a cultivation universe. 

‘System, go ahead and assimilate them’ Fenghua thought after grinning widely. Instead of pain like all her other assimilations tended to be, this time a warm feeling spread through her form, as a sigh of pleasure escaped her lips. 

She could feel the Soul Warming Lotus appear within her very soul, as her “Divine Soul” began to be passively strengthened. She could feel it within her, as glowing green flames appeared on her right hand, as she pointed, the flames bursting from her hands and beginning to coat a nearby plant that she had bought to grow, her eyes widening at the sight of it rapidly growing into a fully groan herb. 

The herb itself was a minor one that had the passive effect of exuding a nice smelling calming scent, perfect for cultivation. Hence why she had planted the thing in her garden, where she cultivated every single day. 

‘If it’s this good this time…I wonder how good the 10th sign in will be?’

_______________________

[Flashback End]

After getting the soul warming lotus, her cultivation speeds had been catapulted to new heights, as she rapidly began to break through into new levels, jumping into Peak 4th Level Nascent Profound in Profound Energy, and breaking through into Peak 1st Level Nascent Profound in Demonic Energy. She was now confident in defeating Xia Qingyue if they fought, and that was without claiming her next sign in, which is what she was doing right now, as she stood outside of the Xia Clan where she was going to meet with Xia Qingyue. 

[Signing in!]

[Sign in Location: Xia Clan]

[Body - Ice Crystal Jade Body (Martial Peak): This is an acquired Special Physique that is particularly suited for Ice-related cultivation. Cultivators with this body will excel in extremely cold environments and can withstand temperatures that would instantly freeze or kill other cultivators. In essence, the user will be able to learn and use ice profound arts far easier than before, and easier than most other cultivators]

[Profound Art: Heavenly Rain of Ice - A special profound art that when used, will cause large icy rain to rain from the skies above, freezing all that it touches. It is, however, an incredibly draining technique, and the larger the “Cloud” the user wants, the more energy needed to be used]

‘Hmm, not bad. The body will be an excellent addition, and I can only guess that is due to Xia Qingyu being a disciple of a Sect that specializes in Ice Profound Arts. I guess it’ll be a good thing to have if I ever go down Yun Che’s route and help them out, in return for learning their arts’ Fenghua thought, assimilating the new body and knowledge.  

The body wasn’t nearly as painful to assimilate as she had expected, and she couldn’t help but notice as the surroundings grew colder as she could see her own breath. While the knowledge was quickly assimilated, and was quite a decent profound art. It wouldn’t be truly good until she got enough profound art to make huge clouds, so for now, she’d have to wait to use it. 

With the assimilation ending a few moments later, Fenghua let out a sigh as she felt the new…body? Within her, it was a change, but a welcome one. 

Glancing around, Fenghua smiled as she walked to the entrance to the Xia clan, and that was…

‘Time to meet Xia Qingyue!’

That’s the end of the chapter!

Another vault chapter or two should be coming today. I plan on doing one for the Bucky TWD fic, one for Power of Three, and maybe a couple more, as I am in a writing mood, and I only really need to update Unique Gamer today. 

Question: Should I have the MC off Yun Che and yoink all of his treasures (The Mirror and Poison Orb)? If I do do that, should she also save Jasmin? If so, I plan on aging Jasmin up to a more…appropriate age (I was planning on doing this either way lol) and potentially making her a part of the harem. 

Current harem that is guaranteed - Xia Qingyue, Chu Yuechan. 

Maybe’s - Jasmine, Cang Yue, Feng Xue’er and more. 

Her harem will likely be rather large, as she is in a cultivation universe lol. 

Anyways, have a good day!
